Wood protection products

Wood protection

Wood is one of the most versatile materials in the world.

The material is very strong despite being comparatively light and has a beautiful appearance. Modern wood preservation helps retain the value of wooden structures and saves resources. BASF has been developing chemical preservatives to protect against fungi and parasites for over a hundred years under the Wolman® brand.

Wood protection products

Wolmanit® CX

Wolmanit® CX is a series of liquid, chromium-free protective salts based on inorganic copper and boron compounds, together with organic active substances. These effectively protect against fungi (including those that cause soft rot) and insects (including termites).

Wolsit® / Xyligen®

The construction sector uses huge amounts of wood-based materials such as chipboard, OSB panels and plywood. Factors like increased moisture can be just as much of a threat to these materials as they are to the woods from which they are made. Wolman also offers the right protection for wood-based materials.
